Why Have All The Portals Disappeared?

When you unlock the Eye of Eden level, all of your portals will disappear. The portals will not return until you complete the Eye of Eden level.

While the Eye of Eden level is open, you will not be able to travel to other levels, or warp to friends.

How Do I Create Candles?

You can create Candles in one of two ways:

You can light Candles throughout the world to collect their Light, and after you have collected enough Light, you can create a Candle by tapping the Candle icon in the top-left.
You can also purchase Candles from the in-app store by tapping the Candle icon in the top-left.

How Do I Create Or Get Hearts?

You can get hearts by either earning them from Quests, or receiving them as gifts from other players.

You can gift someone a Heart by:

Tapping on the friend you would like to gift the Heart to either in person or from the Home.
From the social menu selecting the Gift Heart option.
Converting 3 Candles into a Heart for that player.

Notice - You can only do this once, per friend, every 24 hours.

How Does Energy Work?

Energy is the resource you use to float, light Candles, and generally keep alive. Your Energy is displayed on your Cape, and as a Cape icon in the top-middle of your screen. As you use your Energy it will be drained from your Cape.

When moving, Energy can be used like a jetpack to lift your character higher into the air, from the ground or even while flying. Each time you do this, it will consume a portion of your energy.

You can restore your Energy by standing next to other players, lit Candles, collecting emotes from Spirits or giving High-Fives and Hugs to your friends.

You can increase the amount of total Energy your character has by collecting the emotes from Spirits around the world. This is indicated by the Cape Icon that appears in the top-middle of the screen or by the diamonds on your characters back that light up.

How Does The Winged Light Work?

Winged Light, when collected, will level up your Cape. Each Cape level appears as a star on the back of your character's Cape.

These levels determine how much Wing Energy you will have, and Wing Energy is used to flap and fly higher to find unique or hidden spots in the world.

Winged Light can be found around the world in secret locations. If for whatever reason you lose a Winging Light, you can return to these locations to collect them again.

Winged Light can be deposited in the Eye of Eden level to earn Ascended Light, which can be used to purchase special Winged Light from the Spirits that will restore each time you complete the game.

Why Is My, Or Other Characters, Wearing Headphones?

Headphones will appear on the head of characters when the player is listening to music that is not in Sky.

For example, if the player is listening to iTunes on the same device they are playing Sky, their character will appear with headphones on.

What Does The Lightning And Battery Button In The Menu Do?

The lightning and battery button toggles the Battery Saver mode on and off.

When on, the graphics quality of the game will be reduced, but the life of your device's battery while playing will be extended.

When off, the graphics quality of the game will be at its best, but the life of your device's battery while playing will be shorter.
